Seeing the Ox Cart is one thing. Visiting the factory where it was made and seeing the craftsmanship and artistry is truly impressive. Seeing behind the scenes really ads to the impressiveness of this Ox Cart and the work involved to create such a beauty.

We enjoyed Watching the artists paint the carts and shopping in the gift shops. They have everything from tiny to large carts and many other artistic things with a wide range of prices.

This huge and brightly painted oxcart sits in the Parque Central in front of the church in Sarchí Norte.
It was built in 2006 in order to get the name of the town into The Guinness Book of World Records. It's 18 meters long and weighs 2 tons.
The famous Eloy Alfaro factory was in charge of the project.
